Windows 10 file system layout

I'm looking to go to a new Windows 10 PC, and changing from a Windows 7 PC.

If I backup the "My Documents" folder and all files and folders within, is there a similar file system
under Windows 10, ie same structure I can dump directly to, or have they changed things and I'll
have a bit more messing about to do?

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

Meanwhile, I would suggest that you run the System File Checker
tool and the Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool to scan and correct any issues. System File Checker (SFC) is a built-in tool in the operating system. SFC checks for system file corruption. Deployment Image Servicing and Management
(DISM) is a command-line tool that can be used to service a Windows image or to prepare a Windows Preinstallation Environment image. Kindly follow the steps in this
Forum Article that was posted by ZigZag3143 (MS-MVP) to perform SFC and DISM.
